My deepest sympathy to Ria & the Girls, there are more than three broken hearts in this world, mine is one of them. So nice to see so many people with wonderful memories of Oddie.

Memories:

He introduced himself as "Obi" so I asked if his surname was "Wan Kenobi" he wasnt impressed, Just call me "Oddie then". I believe I also made a reference to Garfields Dog, again not impressed! He did laugh though so off to a good start.

My brother and I had only been in KK for a week or two and stopped for a beer at DPlace in Api Api Centre, Oddie was living upstairs and had just come off a rig in the Philippines.

We couldnt figure out his accent Was he from South Africa Oddie comes back to sit down so I ask him "Are you from S/Africa" he glared at me with that - I'm gonna beat the sh!t outta you look he did so well and simply said "NO I'm Norwegian!!" Well from that day on we were firm friends.

I cant remember a single day we didnt meet up with Oddie after that fateful afternoon back in 2005 in Kota Kinabalu.

Oddie asked what were we doing in KK, we said a new business, just started actually, his advice was "Trust no one! Most people are idiots until proven otherwise!" ... Wise words indeed Mr Faugstad.

He found out we had a squash court at the Condo, insisted on playing, so we all bought rackets and off we went, the master squash player he never seemed to move from that middle T just reached out, smacked the ball.& won every time! I even broke my toe nails trying to beat him, he just laughed and told me to "Harden Up."

From his bright yellow jeep with "Kayakers do it rapidly!" written on the side, which he thought was the funniest thing on Earth and the Kite Surfing kit he bought, Oddie was always up for something to do on weekends. We used to walk from Api-Api to Upper Star Bar, stop on the way and buy 1.5kgs of Chinese dried pork, no wonder I put on 20kgs! He loved that stuff. Have drinks and walk home & hed say "See you tomorrow Big Boy!" ......"Hmmmm.. not impressed Oddbjorn!"

Oddie never tolerated fools easily, if he didnt like you, well you knew it! "Talk to the Hand" he'd say, still makes me laugh now.

Luckily he liked me, I'm very blessed, everyday Id get a text from him "Tiger Time" took me a bit to figure out what he the hell he meant. Ah a beer at the Water Front. "See you. The Loft. 6pm. Sharp!" God forbid if you were late.

Always the tough guy was our Oddie, until that is, I went out with him & Ria in Jakarta in 2011, he invited me to stay with him while I was at a trade exhibition, when he held his baby girl I saw the TOUGH NORWEGIAN GUY melt into a human marshmallow.

After Ria went home we went for a beer and I joked to him "What happened Big Boy Not so tough now are ya! A little baby girl has you beaten!"..... To be honest with you, he had tears in his eyes and looked and me and said....." Yeap and I LOVE IT. Cheers!"

The next day we met a guy in a bar while watching football, hes chatting with us and says "Oh I just had TB but Im Okay now".. Oddbjorn looked at me and said "Why in hell do you attract these people!"... like it was my fault it was very funny believe me. They guy didnt come near us after that.

He got told where to go by you know who.

Lucky for me I got to see my good mate in 2019 in KK for his birthday, unfortunately I couldnt stay for the actual day, life is short and just do it, stay with your friends and family longer than planned, I regret that.

As usual he was in a great mood, loving life, his family and friends, as always.

A True Friend you were, and always will be Mr Faugstad.

Finally. "Fishing for Clarks.".... We lived 3 floors below Oddie, at The Peak KK, sitting on the couch we heard this tap-tap-tap on the window behind us, after thinking what the hell is that! Looking out the window, theres this miniature bottle of Scotch on a fishing line, & there is Oddbjorn laughing and smiling shouting from 3 floors up, hanging out his window, "I've caught two... I've caught two"... referring of course to my brother & I.
So in his bright yellow jeep we go off to enjoy the sunset and KK water front.

That was Oddbjorn Faugstad. The One and Only.

Dypeste medfølelse og omtanke til Oddbjørn sin nærmeste familie. Oddbjørn var en god venn og fantastisk kollega. Han var utrolig flink med mennesker og veldig dyktig i jobben sin. Gode minner som bringer frem et smil.

We miss you so much!

My childhood wouldnt be as memorable as it was without you Uncle Oddie. Thank you for being apart of our lives; for taking care of us. Now we will take care of Aunty Ria, Kadlin and Alea for you.We love you and you will live in our memories forever. Sending my love to you Aunty Ria and kids.


Sincerely,

No words can quantify the sadness felt by the loss of a dear friend. We cannot imagine how hard this must be for Ria, Kadlin and Alea to accept and our thoughts will always be with them.
We thank you for all those numerous memories Oddi we shared in Asia and Norway since the late nineties, and no one can ever take those away.
We feel fortunate to have had you as a dear friend and will miss you mate.
Gone from our sight but never our hearts. Xx

Du er kul og verdens beste pappa :-)

Kære Oddbjørn,
Tak for mange fantastiske stunder sammen med dig og familien. Altid hyggeligt og godt selskab. Minderne vil forblive for evigt. Hvil i fred min ven. Melissa & Peter

We are deeply saddened by the loss that you and your family have encountered. I have known Oddie for over 15 years. I have the pleasure to call him my friend . I love you bro!

Our heartfelt condolences to Ria, Kadlin and Alea on the passing of Oddie our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time

We miss you so much! Miss your voice, miss to having conversation while we are eating on the dining table together, home feels really empty without you...

Gratulerer med dagen Daddy .. Glad i deg .. ️

Missing you my dearest husband.. Today is truly filled with tears, memories of happiness and of birthday celebrations that we have shared throughout the years. Happy birthday in heaven my love! ❤️

When I was 5 years old you gave me my first sip of alcohol. That day foreshadowed a lot of the nights weve had in KK! Im going to miss you uncle Oddie. Youve played a big part in my upbringing and it saddens me to think that we will no longer create more memories. Rest easy.


Sincerely,

Du kommer alltid til å minnes som en svært dyktig, hyggelig og blid kollega og venn. Jeg kommer til å savne praten i gangen, og minnes de kjekke golfrundene vi hadde sammen i Jakarta. Hvil i fred, Oddbjørn..

Takk for mange gode minner du blir dypt savnet og vil alltid bli husket.

Takker for mange fine turer ilag gjennom årene.

Hvil i fred Oddbjørn
Ingen som er elsket forsvinner. Med minnene lever de videre

Vi føler med dere ,og sender dere våre varmeste tanker

Vi savner deg .. ️❤️

Oddbjørn. Alltid et godt smil og en god kommentar. Du vil bli savnet.
Dypeste medfølelse til Ria, Kadlin, Alea og øvrig familie.

Kondolasjoner til de etterlatte. Oddbjørn var en fantastisk kollega og spredte glede hvorhen han var. Han vil være dypt savnet av oss alle.

Vi er glad i deg daddy .. du er verdens beste daddy .. Vi savner deg .. ️

Jeg savner deg min gode venn.
Siden vi møttes første skoledagen på Voss Gymnas da vi begge var 16 år gamle, har du alltid vært der. Nå er du borte og tilbake sitter vi. Livet er brutalt , men etterhvert vil det gjøre mindre vondt, men ikke nå.

I wish I could see you one more time. Come walking through the door, but I know that is impossible.
I will no more hear your voice.
I know you can feel my tears and you dont want me to cry yet my heart is broken because I cant understand why someone so precious had to die.
We have shared our lives for many years yet for a moment. Well have to part.
I will cherish our memories until we share our lives again.
I pray God will give me strength and somehow get me through as I struggle with the heartache that came when I lost you.

I miss you my lovely husband .. ️

Alt for tidleg Oddien !! Vel me set att med steikje mange gode minner frå gymnas tida og etter..... du var ein glad kjernekar ! *Bredn*
